Subject: Re: VALIS IS STILL ALIVE EVEN AFTER THE OFFICIAL HENTAI ASSAULT! Fri 08 Jun 2012, 5:01 pm

It took a few years, but I just now managed to get down to grabbing a new x68k emulator to play the patched Valis II game that Reiko sent me a long time ago. Can't play much into it since my computer's USB port is a bit flaky while playing x68k games, but it reinvigorated my love for the series. So I came over to see what's new in the Valis neck of the woods. Anything? Seems like SunSoft's American site is pretty much done for since there've been no updates since 2010, and they have all the rights to Valis (and El Viento, and Earnest Evans...). I can't read any form of Japanese worth a darn, so SunSoft's Japanese website (and Twitter) are near-useless to me.

There were also a few posts on Something Awful's forums under one of their topics. It's a very brief convo, mostly about how Valis X ruined the series, but it's from earlier this year, meaning the series is still relevant.

Edit2: There's a topic on the Genesis Valis boards on GameFAQs that's semi-active. I namedropped us there, so hopefully we'll get a few more members to add to our growing cult!

Anyone else think it's about time we start a petition to reboot the series? I mean, Valis has had (relatively) a lot of coverage over the last few years, and people fondly remember our Blue Goddess as an idol to be worshiped as one of the progenitors of bad-ass girls in gaming. I could get one started if there's approval?
